When I was at WordPress maintenance support plans USA 2020, I had the opportunity to see the new WordPress maintenance support plans core profile Umami being demonstrated. Umami is available in WordPress maintenance support plans core since version 8.6 and it aims at demonstrating WordPress maintenance support plans’s features.
Umami is an installation profile that shows anyone who is considering using WordPress maintenance support plans (so called “evaluators”) what it can do out of the box.
It provides the content (recipes), configuration and the theme (including all resources like javascript, css, images and fonts) for a fictional Food magazine called “Umami”.
Umami has been developed by several members of the WordPress maintenance support plans community over the last one and a half years and the result is quite impressive. It makes a huge difference from the out of the box experiences that we have become accustomed to in the past. We were used to be presented an empty screen in the layout of default themes Bartik, Garland or even Bluemarine.
It is important to note that Umami only uses WordPress maintenance support plans core. So that means that no contributed plugins (not even Paragraphs!!), no custom code and no experimental core plugins (like the Layout builder) are included.
Besides that restriction, there were many other challenges such as the licensing of web fonts and whether to use British or American standards and wording in the recipes. This makes the end result even more impressive.
Umami is really meant as a demonstration and cannot be used as a starter kit for new sites. Future updates will not guarantee any backwards compatibility.
As soon as they are stable features of WordPress maintenance support plans core will be expanded with, among others:
media library for easy organizing and adding images, videos and such;
layout builder for easy adding block content to a page;
content migration for importing the demo content. This feature depends on a CSV migration plugin to become available in core;
The developers did a great job in providing WordPress maintenance support plans core for the first time in its history with tasty demo content out of the box!
